Brown Trout
For brown trout anglers visiting Leicester, NY, the surrounding waterways offer some excellent opportunities. The Genesee River and its tributaries are your best bet. These streams are stocked annually, and some holdover populations provide a chance at larger, wilder fish. Spring and fall are ideal, with the cooler water temperatures triggering increased activity. Early morning and late evening are often the most productive times. A practical tip is to focus on areas with good cover, such as undercut banks, fallen trees, and rocky runs. Fly fishing is popular, but spinners and small spoons can also be effective. Access points can be found along many of the tributaries, but be mindful of private property. The brown trout in this area can be quite wary, so stealth and a careful presentation are essential for success. Look for mayfly hatches in the spring for some exciting dry fly action.
